Achieving Power Host status is about more than just meeting requirements—it's about providing outstanding experiences that guests will remember. To become a Power Host, you must maintain excellent performance as demonstrated by a high response rate, positive reviews, frequent bookings, no cancellations, and consistency in abiding by the Terms of Service. There’s no application to become a Power Host; rather, your account will be automatically granted Power Host status as you meet the benchmarks below.
We update the list of Power Hosts every quarter using the following benchmarks. The next review date is October 13th, 2024.
1. Response rate ≥ 90%
Respond to 9 out of every 10 inquiries you receive within 24 hours.
2. Average review score ≥ 4.5
At least 9 out of every 10 reviews is 5 stars.
3. Number of bookings ≥ 5
Complete at least 5 bookings every 90 days.
4. No cancellations
You don’t cancel accepted bookings. Some extenuating circumstances apply.
The benchmarks are calculated from the previous 90 days. Keep in mind that you can lose Power Host status if you no longer meet the benchmarks or do not abide by the Terms of Service.
